It's important to notice a word like "metaphor" and a phrase like
"metaphor in many ways" and what the word metaphor means and how a
metaphor may be used.

Once again, for the language impaired he "English is a perfect
metaphor in many ways for Darwin's Theory of

Not in every way, but in many ways.
